Velasco-S, J A

A Mexican perspective conditions this analysis of the role of oil policy in Mexico's economic and political development. The author examines the linkages between external pressures of trade and the oil market and the internal pressures of the Mexican economy and institutions. He emphasizes the need for a strategy to confront the whole if Mexico is to seek a better future through self-reliance and an independent policy. The author examines the major political and institutional threads of demography, administrative policies, oil production and Mexico's status among world producers, and the changing US-Mexican relationship. He concludes that mutual respect and cooperation can enhance the futures of both the US and Mexico. 154 references, 7 figures, 37 tables.
